Losing Alice

I think it is a decent show. Strange at times, but hey sometimes those are the ones that go out with a bang. I was able to watch with English being dubbed over. If it weren't for that I probably wouldn't have cared for it as much. Don't get me wrong I can read, but Apple is a US multinational company that makes over 2 trillion a year. With that being said take the time to dub a series or a film.

Some reviewers are complaining about the spoken language. And that they have to help themselves by subtitles. Do they realise that not the whole world is speaking English ? I'm Flemish, speaking a kind of Dutch. Since our whole live we always watch a non-Dutch spoken thing by subtitles. Always ... We sometimes do understand, and speak some other languages, where under English. So please, be aware of what you criticise concerning the native language of a film or serial. It's a kind of being respectful. About 'Losing Alice' itself : we just watched the first episode. It's hard stuff. So, we wait with an final opinion until we've seen more.

I just watched the first three episodes and I can't wait for more. The acting is superb. The storyline is provocative and engaging. I'm so glad AppleTV is streaming this show. It's beautifully done and I really hope it gets the recognition it deserves. I've always loved Ayelet Zurer. She's an actress of immeasurable talent and a captivating beauty. I recently watched her play Milada Horáková in the film Milada. Her performance in this movie blew me away.

The bad reviews are bewildering to me. It's like there's an agenda to bring down this series. Watched Defending Jacob before this, which got high 7s, and I literally fast forwarded through half of it. Presumed Innocent, another Apple TV series with high 7s, miserably slow and boring. Those shows pale in comparison to Losing Alice, which does everything right that they do wrong.

It's subtle, well paced, cerebral, atmospheric, multidimensional, absorbing and thought provoking. It has an interesting premise. It views like a really well made film. It kept my interest and made me think and feel. The other shows must be for the masses (enough with the hackneyed dark lighting!) This is for those who truly appreciate complexity in filmmaking.

Fantastic script and acting, fascinating story. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. You just know it's not going to end well but you must keep watching. Give it a try.
